[0044] The present application embodiment provides a wheelbarrow caster brake system device, such as Figures 1 to 10 As shown, the trolley caster brake system device includes a brake spring 3, a spring roller 4, a first return spring 5, a ratchet 6, a pawl 7, a fixed frame 8, a connecting frame 9, a caster bracket 1, a caster 2, a first screw 10, a second return spring 11, a second screw 12, a third screw 13, a pedal 14 and a trolley body 15.
[0045] The caster wheel 2 is arranged at the bottom end of the caster support 1, the fixed frame 8 is arranged at the front end of the caster support 1, the rear end of the fixed frame 8 is hingedly connected with the front end of the connecting frame 9, the first screw rod 10 penetrates through the front end of the connecting frame 9, the second reset spring 11 and the ratchet wheel 6, so that the ratchet wheel 6 is rotatably arranged at the front end of the connecting frame 9.
[0046] The third screw rod 13 penetrates through the fixed frame 8, so that one side of the second reset spring 11 abuts against the fixed frame 8, and the other side of the second reset spring 11 abuts against the connecting frame 9; after the connecting frame 9 is pressed under external force and the external force is removed, the connecting frame 9 returns to the original position under the elastic force of the second reset spring 11.
[0047] The ratchet wheel 6 is uniformly provided with concave surfaces 61 and convex surfaces 62 radially adjacent to each other on the surface of the ratchet wheel 6, wherein the concave surfaces 61 are four in number, and the convex surfaces 62 are four in number, and the ratchet wheel 6 is further provided with eight teeth 63.
